There's a first for everything right??

I didn't have a chance to write this down yesterday but don't worry, I'm doing it right now.

Aimee is always telling me that Ireland is a "Different" little girl. She isn't saying that to mean there is something wrong with her or that she is weird in any way. She says it to mean that she has a very strong personality and nothing stops her. She is constantly on the GO! 

I'm saying all of this to lead up to 24 hours ago, exactly. 

June 18th, 2:00 p.m I went in to Ireland's room to get her. I put her down for a nap two hours before but she just stayed up and played. Totally fine with me. I went in to get her because she was knocking at the door so I figured she was done being alone. when I enter her room she was sitting on her glider chair crying and screaming. My first thought was maybe she touched the outlet and shocked herself. I didn't run to her because she didn't appear to be hurt, she just seemed to know she might be in some kind of trouble. (She usually gets disciplined for climbing out of her bed)

I then notice her skirt was off which for her is normal. So ....whatever. She started to get up from the chair (everything seemed to be in slow motion at this point) and I notice not only is her skirt off but so is her diaper!

She continues to attempt to get off the chair and I see "stuff" all over the bottom of her foot. She stood up on the chair (Still screaming) and there is POOP on the chair. I rush her to the bathroom and stand her up in the tub to rinse her off when I notice it's not just on your feet but it's on her hands, by her mouth, and up by her nose! 

My first thought was she was curious and wanted to smell and taste it. The look her face lead me to believe she did taste it and that's a big reason why she was screaming. Cause it was NASTY!!!?? 

I immediately called Aunt Aimee to ask what she would do if Luke, Liv, or Lyse ate poop and she said, "NONE of my kids ever did that"!! Those 3 kids have done some pretty crazy things but leave it to Ireland to be the first to do this. I love her so much but in that moment I had no sympathy for her tears. I was angry but in the midst of being angry I knew I would shortly be laughing about it. It took me a few hours.

This is just the beginning isn't it?? 

Workout Update

Well I honestly can't tell you what day I'm on because I started over. I might be on a total of 25 days. 

I started over because I would only be able to do 1 day out of the week which was not good enough. Either the kids wouldn't nap at the same time or if Ireland napped and Dublin was up, he would be fussy and I wouldn't be able to put him down. 

These are very good excuses for me not to workout. If I'm able to hold my kids and love on them rather then working out then by all mean....my arms are open!

Here is a progress picture of myself from 2 months. I know there isn't a huge difference but any change is awesome in my book. 

These pants haven't been able to button in a long time

Also, look at the difference in my pants.....again not a huge difference to anyone but me but still....

It's encouraging when your husband tells you "Wow those pants used to be REALLY tight on you..."

I'm definitely not finished yet but this right here is more motivation for me to keep going. If I can do this in two months then I can't imagine what my progress will be in 10 more months. I might not be satisfied or even comfortable in summer clothes this year but I keep telling myself that by next summer I could possibly have a new wardrobe. If I get pregnant in the process then GREAT...I'll just keep working out moderately and watch my diet. 

So since I've started over I am currently on day 7, still of the 30 Day Shred. As annoying as Jillian Michaels  is she sure does kick my butt every time. She mentions in the video to just scream it out but at times I catch myself screaming at her "I DESPISE YOU!!!" 

Ok well I'll see you all in about 2 months if not sooner :)
